No prob here... What you are doing is a wonderful thing!
We support your cause and I don't mind you mentioning that you are giving away a few subscriptions to the "other site"...

That's the kind of guys we are! Very Happy

We all know why we started this site anyway. Because It's FREE!
Very Happy

Can we give away a Membership to every single person who attends
no matter who wins?

Can CTFishTalk.com have a banner at your function? That would be a great help if we could....

Good Luck and let us know if we can do anything to help!

The tournament committee has yet to receive any entries to the tournament. We do realize that this may be due to the fact that we were trying to make sure everyone could be involved and have registration the same day of the tournament. We do NOW realize that participants will probably hold out til the day of the tournament to register to see how thew weather is. This does however create a newly realized logistics problem with the tshirt availability the day of the tournament.

We would appreciate anyone that is anticipating that they are going to enter the tournament let us know asap and would like to see people register sooner than later.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation with this issue.
